*Hoops for Heart is underway!*

1. Please create an on-line account with a parent’s email address to help
our school win a $500 bonus for PE equipment. No money needs to be donated
for this bonus, only creating an account! We need 50% of our students to
create an account to win this award. If you have any questions on how to
create an account see Mrs. Schreurs. You can even bring in an email
address and she will help you create the account at school.

2. Donations are also beginning to come in. This is of course voluntary,
but if you do collect donations please either use your on-line account or
bring in the Hoops for Heart envelopes which were handed out. If you need
a new envelope see your PE teacher.

We will not have show choir this week.

Attention Sheboygan Falls Students, the Falcon Way has important
information that YOU do not want to miss. In the next couple weeks, you
will have several opportunities to use your Falcon Feathers. First, the
Falcon Store will be open during your lunch hour on Tuesday, March 12th.
There have been a lot of new items you can purchase with your Falcon
Feathers including: Snacks, headphones, sports gear, Starbucks gift cards
and much much more. Our next Falcon Way drawing will be on Friday, March
15th. The prize box will be put out starting today through the end of the
day on March 14th. The winner will be announced during morning
announcements on the 15th. The next prize will be two Splash Passes and
two mini golf passes for Blue Harbor Water Park. This means you and a
friend can go to Blue Harbor for a day FREE! Two winners will be drawn.
This is an opportunity you do NOT want to miss! Finally, The Falcon Way
will be sponsoring two activities during the Student and Staff basketball
game. The two activities are the VIP section at the Student and Staff
basketball game and half time musical chairs. First, the VIP section:
There will be 4 winners selected. Each winner will be able to choose a
friend to sit in the VIP section with them. Sitting in the VIP section
will give you front row seats to ALL the action as well as unlimited
popcorn and bottled water. Second, musical chairs: We are looking for one
person per grade level to participate in the student-staff basketball game
halftime. Students will go against staff members in a game of musical
chairs! To enter both or either activity, all you do is need to enter your
Falcon Feather(s) in the Falcon Prize Box which will be located on the
stage and will start the morning of Monday, March 18th. One side of the box
will be designated for the VIP section and the other side for musical
chairs. The winners will be announced the morning of March 22nd. Sheboygan
Falls Middle School Students, keep making EXPECTED choices through out the
school day by being Safe, Responsible and Respectful students. Staff,
please reward students for making EXPECTED choices! Thank you –

Big news from the Art Room at SFMS: our Annual Student Art Exhibit is
undergoing some big changes this year! In the past, we always had artwork
up in the cafeteria during the weekend of our spring musical. Since we
don’t have the “tackable wall space” in our beautiful new commons, we will
not be having a formal BIG art exhibit the weekend of the play. We will
have a small display to celebrate Youth Art Month, which is March! Plans
are underway to have a bigger Art Exhibit in the late spring with the
elementary. Mrs. Fischer and Mr. Hoes are working out the details. Stay
tuned!

It’s time to Unpack our Adjectives.
This song was written by
George Newall and performed by Blossom Dearie. A girl and her turtle
unpack her adjectives unpack her adjectives from an enormous adventure they
had.

TRACK and FIELD SIGN UP – Attention *7th and 8th* Graders! Please see Mrs.
Miller in the office to get the paperwork and sign up for the track team.

Sheboygan Falls Middle School is participating in the annual Sheboygan
County Help For Homeless Hygiene Drive. We are in need of donations that
include; cleaning supplies/products, shampoo, conditioner, soap/body wash,
deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrushes, etc. Donations can be dropped off in

for the Elementary – Friday Night Cast; March 15th at 9:00 for the Middle
School – Saturday Night Cast. Students involved in the musical will be
released after peaceful start. I anticipate the show taking 1 hour. We
would like the youngest grade level to sit toward the front on chairs and
then proceed back from there. We may be sitting on the bleachers as well.

Health tip:
It is estimated that 51 million school hours are lost each year due to oral
health issues. Oral Health concerns are the most common chronic disease in
school aged children. Discomfort and self consciousness caused by oral
health disease interferes with the students ability to learn. Everyone
should see their dentist 1-2 times per year. Please contact your nurses if
you need help obtaining dental care. Did you know that your students can
have their teeth checked while here at school through Lakeshore Dental.
They are scheduled to visit our school district the week of 2/25/19. Call
your nurses for details!
